Confidence in the board

The silence and complete lack of movement is worrying me.

Huge changes needed

It's the only thing we're good at.

Talking about voodoo was when I lost what little faith I had left.

To be fair I hadn't laughed so hard as I did reading about that voodoo stuff in the AGM. For this alone it might be the highlight of Everton's season.

How bad must it be if that was my favourite moment. When Mad Mosh went off piste and embraced his inner idiot.

So the answer to the original post is, shrug shoulders and take a slug of moonshine in preparation for an Apocalypse Now style season. I'm in!

The people have spoken. 8% believe in the carpet bagger. I'm surprised it's as high as 8% tbh.

An utter fraud, and this summer will prove it for the remaining poor souls who still believe in him.

Moshiri not on the board mate.

I propose the permanent replacement of the ‘i’ word with the word cockwomble.

I didn't know imbecile was that offensive. Internet seems to not be 100% either way. Cockwomble seems fine.

And yet here we are - in the gutter.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

I don't believe a word of that. Just always wanted to use it in a thread.

Things wont change until Kenwright and co are gone. Get shot of those muppets and who knoes things might start to progress.

Sadly it was inevitable with the structure of Moshiri's takeover (the 49.99% until the stadium is signed off) that things would be difficult.

Hopefully Elstone, Walsh and Sam are gone come the start of next season and once planning permission is granted come towards Dec/January that starts to put in motion Kenwright and Woods end.

Good times ahead lads just need to get through the next year or so.

I agree with this tbh, i still find it hard to believe at times that we have a new owner and the prospect of a new stadium and the likes of Kenwright and Elstone are still hanging around in the background.

This is a quote from the Arsenal Board today

He assembled it.

Do people really believe the big decisions in the last two years have been made by anyone other than Moshiri? Really?

I think hes made all the decisions, but hes not a dictator David, hes had counsel, from Bill, Elstone, only when these names are gone and its JUST The Mosh running the show, thats when we will know.

If he's been getting advice from those two I doubt he's been listening to them. Can you see them advising Moshiri to hand £200M over to a manager to waste on a handful of tripe signings? Doesn't fit the bill really does it given how parsimonious they were when in charge? Do you think they advised Moshiri to attempt to load over £500M debt onto the club for a stadium? Me neither. Or sack a manager 10 games into a season and have no successor in place?

The carpet bagger is in full control now. Anyone who believes he's shackled or ill advised need to give their heads a wobble. There is no better future based on Moshiri having more power to do what he wants.

I guess we find out.

For me he's not made particularly bad decisions - his crime has been going for the flavour of the month (koeman, walsh, Silva) but I definitely think he'll have had Kenwright advising him who was very much of that mind set (appointing Moyes from Walter Smith's advice and appointing Martinez after his FA Cup win)

My only gripe with him is his public statements which are cringeworthy and I wish he would reign it in... but he's put his money where his mouth is and invested more than any other owner thats come into English football bar the top 4/5.

Imagine the fume if he did a Southampton's new Chinese owner and sold Lukaku for £75 million and only reinvested £20 million of it - he would have been hammered whereas he's sold Rom and reinvested the full amount and then some.

He's also kick started the new stadium who lets be honest if it was BK it would be a pipe dream certainly at BMD.

Got to give him time and for me him/his money will benefit alot from getting shot of the current failures in the board room and actually having real business/football men advising him. Imagine someone like Dein as Chairman/CEO and Brands DOF - the potential is there and we need to rememeber the grass isnt always greener see WBA/Southampton/Newcastle/Stoke/Palace all with takeovers with owners not spending a penny - TV money or otherwise.

You see him having done a lot, I see him having done nothing but a bad job. He's handed nothing of his own money over for the squad but he has made a pigs ear of the spending of the club's generated cash in that respect, and we're getting nowhere fast on the stadium.

People either actually see that now or they're still in the period of denial and hanging on to the early hopes that he can be a game changer. For me the jury is in: he's just another vampire on the club and his future decision making will make our situation even worse than it is right now. He is clueless about this industry. We're screwed shackled to this feller now.
